Console Piracy On The Rise?

With the pirated leak of Fallout 3 three weeks before its release date, Rob and Ben (from Tom's games) talk console piracy and how it affects the gaming industry as a whole.

every thing gonna be hacked and pirated after this economical disaster

jedistev6416d ago

everything is piracy, every PS3 has homebrew... they can do anything they want copy game in HDD or Blu-ray media or External USB HDD up to 1tb or 2tb....

love see end of piracy but long way to go...!!!

DNAgent6417d ago

I looked at the title and was kind of confused for a second since there is no piracy on the PS3. Then I remembered about all of the people who pirated games for the 360. Looks like a lot of devs chose the wrong console to develop for so now it's coming back to bite them in the ass and they are crying about the piracy.

Trekster_Gamer6416d ago

If you think the PS3 won't be pirated. Devs back the 360 because of thats where the money is. Yes there is pirating but in the grand scheme of things they already know this. Thew knew this before they made the game, they look at number of purchase receipts and not small amount of pirating (comparatively speaking). I would imagine that there are some that do pirate the games (while it is wrong) just do not wish to wait until it's release to play it. When they game is released they most likely purchase it to play it online (something you can't normally do on a pirated game.

Treskter...until it happens...The PS3 remains hack-proof. I can say the PSP can be hacked but as for the PS3? No.

testerg356416d ago

Its only a matter of time before the PS3 gets hacked too. Blu-Ray burners and media prices are going down. Once its hacked, it will sell like crazy.

SH3MRON6416d ago

From what I heard there is a way to hack the ps3 and consists of a way to record the whole game disc on the hdd but don't know if its posible to play online and there's a rumor that it can be done with recordable BD discs (I find hard to belive this one) but like I said its just rumors.

The 360 was hacked before its release since its mostly based on pc hardware but its never gonna be as easy as a pc. And the new drives cannot be hacked (at least for now).

mariusmal6416d ago (Edited 6416d ago )

i don't know where this myth that consoles dont suffer from piracy came from. all previous consoles were pirated and the only one left is the ps3.

i'm a little tired of the "ohhh gosh pc gaming is getting pirated to oblivion". i'm a gamer for about 16 years and piracy always existed.. and guess what, we are still playing pc and consoles games.

i'm not supporting piracy, i'm just saying its old news and that always existed. piracy is hardly newsworthy.

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart129d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken7129d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies12130d ago (Edited 130d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel1989129d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_129d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg129d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher129d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq1129d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.

Fallout 3 remastered on the Nintendo Switch 2 is what we deserve, not the worst Fallout game

Fallout Day's disappointing news that Fallout 4 is coming to Switch 2 is a shame, as this 17-year-old entry is more deserving of a new port.

Why exactly do you think you deserve it??

Phoenix76201d ago

Fallout 4 isn't the worst game in the franchise. It's either Fallout 76 or Fallout BOS that's the worst.

gigoran8201d ago

PC and all other modern consoles never got a remaster of 3, but obviously the switch 2 was the tipping point to make it a reality... ahuh

1nsomniac201d ago

Meh, I thought 3 was garbage. I'm not a great fan of the franchise to be fair. They're like B-Movie films, really shallow and janky. 4 was definitely one of the better ones though.

UltimateOwnage201d ago

So the article makes a snippy entitled statement and acts like that is going to encourage a publisher to give them what they want. Okay.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro389d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.
